If "Sort By" shows the data in the first cell then it is being treated
as a column header. Go to the Options tab and correct the item
regarding the sort range including the header.

I have 4.2.7.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 and you are correct, sort is not working.
When I reported it, I provided a great deal of information about it and
was told "Not a bug" and "works for me" by those who have the power to
close bugs.
My argument was/is that if you use the sort arrows (as you have done
here) then you're asking/telling LO to sort the selected rows with no
options.
Instead it was deemed correct that instead, LO assumes the first cell
found is used as a label regardless of any other settings.
This "feature" (*cough*) cost me a number of hours of work to get around
and avoid.
The argument is that since you can use the "Sort" menu option and change
this behavior *for each sort occurrence* then there's a work around for
the "feature" and we should be happy with that.
